    I’m guessing I’m not the only one who thought Rachel was going to make a Victorian Lamp costume 😂
  • The fact that we all thought Rachel was going to cosplay a lamp * a totally normal thing for Rachel to do* makes me laugh.
  • I love the idea that someday, years and years and years from now, someone's going to stop by the estate sale at the Maksy estate and decide this is a perfect lamp for their living room, and they'll have no idea that they're adopting a tiny, bronze version of you into their home.

    Can we please talk about how great Nina's letter is? She knows whats right and she is not afraid to tell it to Rachel. 🔥
  • Rachel, slamming her hands on the table: LAMP The moths in the vicinity: I’m listening
  • @meulanier8179
    I'm really glad I wasn't the only one assuming "oh yeah totally normal, Rachel will be cosplaying as a vintage lamp. Can't wait to watch"

    Some (hopefully helpful) advice for the next time you work for epoxy sculpt: I work in layers when I'm working with it! So I'll make something, wait for it to harden up and then sculpt on top of that! BONUS! Waiting a bit for epoxy sculpt to harden up (but not COMPLETELY dry and hardened!) You can do more detailed sculpting! So if you ever sculpt a teeny tiny face ever again, make the base of the head, wait for that to harden, and then add the facial features so you don't end up smooshing it! THAT ALL BEING SAID: this turned out SO CUTE and now you got me wanting to sculpt tiny art nouveau women 😂
  • It's funny to me that every time Rachel says she isn't sure anyone is going to like the video it usually turns out to be one of my favourites, and this is no exception. I really hope one day she can feel secure enough to just make whatever she wants without having to think about the view number
  • Okay. I thought you were going to cosplay as a lamp. As cool as that would’ve been, I must say that this is EVEN COOLER. Amazing project again, Ms. Rachel! ✨

    Read it as “Making myself INTO a vintage lamp,” then thought No way, I definitely read that wrong. It must be “Making myself a vintage lamp.” Nope. It is in fact making myself INTO one. I should have known better than to question it 😂💙
  • @sadiesanerd
    Did I think you would be dressed as a lamp? Yes. Am I disappointed? Hell no. This is such a fun and clever crafting idea!! ❤
  • @GutterBratt
    I love that as polished as Rachel’s videos get, they still feel so genuine unfiltered and real she’s always felt more like a friend than a YouTube personality Never lose the goofy you beautiful beautiful human

    "Life is short. Make yourself into your own knickknacks." - Rachel Maksy WORDS TO LIVE BY! 🙌🙌🙌
  • I love how the light shines on her little face. It's like she was walking through the forest and suddenly this huge glowing flower appeared l...makes sense why she would "faint"😊
  • I'm so glad to hear someone else say that ASMR doesn't do it for them. Every time I say to someone that they make me uncomfortable I get looked at like I'm insane 😭
  • What a fantastic idea! Sculpting on an existing lamp to make it your own. I can imagine many years from now, you will become a family Myth. “The lady in the lamp.”
  • @starryghost
    Can confirm: turning into a lamp is 100% completely totally normal. I do it all the time!
  • @LtSarai
    Rachel: I don't know if anyone is going to like this We the Fans: ANOTHER VIDEO! MUST DROP EVERYTHING TO WATCH!!!!!!!!!! ... After watching: Truly. Yet another masterpiece from Queen Maksy. We have been gifted.

    Don't forget you can carve the cured epoxy clay so you can refine little details, as a future reference. :) This turned out awesome!
